Other Resources

MSO

The MSO also has a Peer Navigator who is available to work with and support people in recovery from the use of substances. Our Peer Navigator, Bryan Edwards (bryan.edwards@aspenpointe.org, 719-323-0206), is able to work with individuals by phone or email to provide encouragement, empathy and assistance with referrals. He can help people struggling during this difficult time with mentoring tools and strategies as well as offering hope by being an example that recovery is possible!

The Phoenix

At Phoenix, we're striving for physical distancing while maintaining social connection. We're doing our best to support those who are isolated and might need peer connection now more than ever. We recently launched virtual programs, and I wanted to share the link in case there is anyone in your network who might find these classes valuable. They're happening every hour, and we're doing our best to offer a wide range of options. Feel free to share with treatment centers, criminal justice groups, or anyone who may want to participate. As always, programs are free and the only requirement is 48 hours of continuous sobriety.

Telehealth Resources

HRSA has funded the Telehealth Resource Centers (TRCs) to provide assistance, education, and information to organizations and individuals who are actively providing or interested in providing health care at a distance. Their purpose is to assist in expanding the availability of health care to rural and underserved populations. And because they are federally funded, the assistance they provide is generally free of charge.

The regional TRCs will work with individuals and organizations to solve healthcare delivery problems. The regional TRCs is there for anyone to provide them the technical assistance, education, and various resources. Each TRC is attributed an individual uniqueness, allowing them to provide a wide range of assistance targeting their regional needs.

Under one consortium, the NCTRC is working hard to make telehealth an important element in today’s healthcare environment.
